Sometimes you don't see something even though it's staring you in the face. That's the case with today's fun update, we reveal the two different Mego Fortress of Solitude Playsets that are out there. A completely revised gallery that also features new evidence this was originally supposed to be called the Hall of Justice.
I love good Planet of the Apes customs, that's why I'm smitten with Jim's rendition of Caesar from Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. Call it monkey love I guess.....

It only took me four years to discover that the two sets I own are entirely different.

I never knew there was a second version of this. I had the all gray one as a kid. I like the blue computers, but I like the wall position on the first one better.
Question- Was the all-white Fortress of Solitude ever produced and sold, or was it just a catalog shot?
WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.
Just a catalog shot, there are copies of the 79 Catalog out there that have CANCELLED written right across these.

Wow, that second one is really snazzy.I'd take either, and hopefully one day I'll own one of them. The HOJ Lab sticker is priceless. The Avengers sticker still cracks me up. Gotta love the Aparo Aquaman art though! I'm sure Rob does!
